5. Credit Cards

There were many times in which my bank blocked my credit card when I’m in a different country so it is always a good idea to bring more than one credit card as well as inform the bank about your trip early

  • Inform the credit card company prior to travelling
  • Bring more than one credit card
  • Always have some cash with you
  • Keep aware of foreign transaction fees, some credit cards have foreign transaction fees but most of the time you can work with the credit card company prior to travelling so that you don’t get these fees.

7. Planned Entry and Exit

Some airlines can be really strict with this one. They require that you have a flight into the country as well as out of the country. You can try purchasing only a one-way ticket, people do this all the time but you do run the risk of them making you purchase and exit ticket on the spot which can sometimes be more expensive.

8. Clear Cache

If you’ve been searching for flights but haven’t bought it clear your internet cache before you make any purchases. This can slash the cost of flights a significant amount sometimes.

9. Make Copies

Scanned copies of your passport. ID s and important documents and keep a copy with you all times. Also, email a copy to yourself.

10. BackUp

Backup everything that’s on your computer, tablet or phone that you are planning to carry with you before you go on to an external hard drive. That way if you lose anything or if it gets stolen you have originals information stored safely somewhere.

11. Pack

Seriously, under pack. Pick carefully your essentials including clothes, cosmetics, and electronics. Everything you are going to be needed is there, yes in Asia also and it is a lot cheaper. Include a sweater because it can be really cold in the night time also in air-conditioned buses and plains. Take a microfiber towel which is lightweight and quick to dry. Pair of earplugs is a must when you are in a noisy hotel room or you want to relax undisturbed
Definitely take a good battery bank so you can change things when you are on the way it is a lifesaver.
